The app looks great. I didn’t get to work through everything bc I need an option to talk instead of type. My other app does that. While this app is immensely cheaper I’m going to stick with my old app. Also the screen doesn’t adjust for iPhone on the 17 Pro. So even if I wanted to type I can’t see what I’m typing- right now for instance.
Wonderful Idea, but…

I think this app as a whole is a wonderful idea. The interface is simplistic enough for me, and I like the functionality. I like the inclusivity of DBT and CBT, the companion, etc.However, I wish you could do multiple check-ins. Especially with BPD havers, our emotions are rapid cycling, constantly. if we’re to be able to rely on this app in moments of distress to help ease our triggers (of course, I’m aware this app isn’t a replacement for professional help in the moment of extreme distress/emergency), then I think it would be a lot more helpful to be able to check-in multiple times in the case of multiple triggers happening throughout a day.other than that…good job, devs :) it’s a good app!
Why
Uzi_Reincarnate
this app looked so promising when i downloaded it the intro questionnaire was great and full of customization but then it said its paid not everyone can afford a subscription but countless people need the help and cant get it from other methods like professionals so why would you make something like this paid if you can pay the 10 dollars per month or 60 per year i guess whether its worth it or not would be up to the customer to decide
Great app, BUT..

When I try to use the “companion” option to talk to my companion, the app crashes and takes me back to my iPhone Home Screen. Like it crashes and kicks me out of the app every time.
Developer Response
Hi, yes there was a bug, we got it fixed and it now works. Sorry for this.
